Runway Meetup in Tokyo - Creative Vision, and the Future of Interactive AI
âðš A special Runway-supported meetup in Tokyo on generative video, world models, and the future of interactive AI.
â(âæ¥æ¬èªã¯ðã«ç¶ããŸã)
âJoin us for an evening of talks, discussion, and community around one of the most exciting frontiers in AI: how generative video is evolving beyond content creation toward interactive world models, digital agents, and physical AI systems.
âAs video generation tools become more controllable, interactive, and responsive to actions, they are opening up new possibilities for creators, researchers, engineers, game builders, robotics teams, and anyone interested in the next phase of multimodal AI.
âð¥ Together with speakers from the creative AI, gaming, avatar, and physical AI communities, weâll explore how this shift could reshape creative production, avatars, Game/NPCs, real-time interactive systems, simulation, robotics, and embodied AI â and what it may mean for Japanâs AI and creative technology ecosystem.
